Pics of car w/o mudgards?

Wanna take off my mudguards. Although I'm sure it won't be a good idea. The car's got ~57,000 miles on it. I'm sure the paint under the guards are scratched to hell and back. soooo I'll probably have to see what it looks like w/o the guards and decide if i'm going to keep it.

Hopefully scratch X will take care of this lil' problem...

Back on track. Anyone got any pictures of the car w'o the mudguards?

The mud guards look alot better if you paint them to match.

Hey ravin. Clean car. How many miles before you wised up and took off the guards? =/.

I'm @ 56K miles. I'm scared to see what's under those guards

I took off the mudguards at 60K miles, and there was nothing that a little elbow grease wouldn't take care of.

I got it used with about 36K and they were never on. But I would have taken them off. I'm up to 54K in 1 year. I need to drive less.

Yep, 6 whole miles from work. I didn't buy that car to park it bro. I do a lot of driving around. That car is made to be driven.

Awesome picture pumped.
Did all the repairs go smoothly?

And yeah, I got rid of 'em. There's a slight scratch on the front left,but it's not too noticeble unless you get right up in it. I can't believe I actually left those stupid things off. It was sooo painful just tearing them off the car.
